The answers are in the linked video's confirming your questions. I really can't be pd telling you to be honest your cognitive dissonance gets in the way of reason. Maybe I should sample my evidence in cartoon form ha ha

So why is it that the moon looks "upside down" when viewed from Australia?

So if the earth is flat, as you maintain, and not a globe, as I maintain, what possible perspective effect could it be that makes the moon look upside down to two different observers standing on the same flat surface?



Why will you not answer this very simple question?

Pointless trying to explain to trolling Neanderthal's the best cartoon like adaptation I could come up with is this.



This is fabulous piece of work by Rob Skiba converting stellarium to the flat earth model. Stellarium is a free software you can download on-line. It is a heliocentric, globe-based program. However, by setting the location view to essentially be at the centre of the South Pole, and using the Stereographic view mode (with all of the stars and planets turned off), Rob was able to get a view of the sun and moon orbiting the Earth. From that particular view however, the orbit was anti -clockwise, so all he did was flip it to be a clockwise rotation and then laid it over the Flat Earth model with a screen filter. This was the end result. What amazed me though was how it literally shows the sun speeding up and slowing down, depending on how tight or wide the circuit was. Rob didn't do that. Stellarium did. This shows how the time of day remains consistent, whether in January or in June.



I'm still awaiting globe evidence since page 1. Moon phases are shown here which should answer BUBBLES's questions. But no doubt the trolls won't understand what Rob is showing here. Sun an moon circuits should explain both phases ( upside down too) and eclipses.[urlhttps://youtu.be/R52_PdZlSq8?t=19[/url

Feck me, your gormcloptitude is of a fierce preserve.



Latest evidence update.



Link to a You Tube video where the author freely admits that they have manipulated a piece of software that demonstrates something else to prove their own idiotic viewpoint.



Can you hear that sound?



Probably not as there won't be many echoes on your Earth, it's the sound of seven billion people giving you a slow hand clap whilst feeling awfully sorry for you and patting you on the head, me, myself, am a charitable Goose, i'm just warming some milk to mix in with your Farley's rusk.



Please tell me, this is you Mugwump, conducting some sort of online Milgram.

Do I strike you as the type of person who requires an alternative account to get under folk's skin?





That said, I am watching the debate with incredulity.



Previously unknown member with thirty posts suddenly starts spamming multiple threads with controversial rhetoric ... I mean, c'mon!



[iThe disconcerting thing here is not that supposedly intelligent people are responding to an obvious troll - it's that I suspect many of you KNOW he's a troll and are responding anyway. What THAT says is an interesting debate for another time.[/i



=#FF0000Anyhow. I'm nipping any more discussion on earth's flatness in the bud insofar as this thread is concerned. One is quite enough (as I've already stated).



I'll let this message sink in and then cut the garbage out of this thread later on. And yes - if it continues I'll just cut the account because it is annoying for those people who use this thread often.

Amazing (2013) image of the Earth and Moon from the Japanese Hayabusa-2 probe as it travels across space to rendezvous with an asteroid.

That's a cracking image. Amazing stuff.

After professing an interest to a family friend they recently turned up at my door with a telescope they had safely packed away in their loft many moons ago.



So, does any one have any very, very basic advice on the best way to use one/what I should expect as a newbie to telescopes?
